[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone say more about the humanities cuts? Feel like I'm bucking trends here, but I actually want a humanities-focus for our kid. That's where their strengths lie. She's in at Washington College with merit and I know they have a good writing award... but during our (sulky kid) tours, both Washington College and St Mary's seemed heavily Stem focused. Hard to tell if that's just what everyone wants to see or if it would be a problem. Neither has very big English or Art departments. [/quote] They made a big deal about the “lit house” at our Washington College tour and how they promote an interdisciplinary approach. My husband and I really liked it and thought it was less remote than SMCM. Kid nixed it almost immediately - only explanation was he didn’t like the vibe. I think the tour was too rah rah and salesy fir him. It was a “open hose visit day” vs the laid back tour at St Marys.[/quote]
